Guest guest Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 Every year I remove eggs from my diet for Lent (that is 46 days this year--with the exception of the 6 Sundays in there). And every year I find breakfast time increasingly harder for me to fill the void that was once heavy with thousands of egg-ish delights. So I need some great breakfast ideas that will leave me light but satisfied and not even thinking twice about my eggy friends. Recently, in an attempt to find something else, I have been eating a piece of bread that I toast with some dijon and cheese and then i top it with thin slices of apple. It is delicious, but is getting old quickly. And I eat oatmeal that I start in the crock pot at night, which is good, but can get old as well. I need some more thoughts/recipes!!!! Any suggestions?? Oh! And I have three children, whom I have to wrangle in the morning, so time is not something I have a lot of. Thanks! P.S. I am also giving up Facebook for 46 days, but that is an entirely different addiction and for that I do NOT seek help in replacing. Just sympathy. OK, Thanks!

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 We have a bunch of great ideas for breakfast foods in our recipe files. Go to the Breakfast Ideas folder, and in there you will find other subfolders like: 1. Biscuit and Gravy Recipes 2. Breakfast UnMeats: recipes for fakey bacon, veg breakfast sausages, etc. 3.Cold Cereals and Granolas: Includes breakfast bars made with cereal or granola. 4. Doughnuts and Cinnamon Rolls 5. Egg-Free Scrambles and Such: tofu scrambles and other egg-free breakfast entrees 6. French Toast Recipes 7. Waffles and Pancakes: also a place for crepes or any sort of griddle cake Good luck researching our files there. Another thing I'd suggest, is to think outside the breakfast norm. Sometimes I enjoy a bowl of soup, or a re-heated bowl of vegetarian stew to start my day. Pizza, quesadillas, beans and rice, etc. Breakfast should be delicous and filling to get you going through your busy day. ~ PT ~ , " jamilyn " <jamijamlyn wrote: > > Every year I remove eggs from my diet for Lent (that is 46 days this > year--with the exception of the 6 Sundays in there).

Guest guest Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 I find nuts with my toast is good...as well as a banana. I cut the banana up and eat the pieces with a fork...makes me think I am eating something...and lasts longer. I have also been known to eat potato chips for breakfast...After all, we do eat hash browns. ________________________________ jamilyn <jamijamlyn Monday, February 9, 2009 8:40:15 AM Egg Free Lent Every year I remove eggs from my diet for Lent (that is 46 days this year--with the exception of the 6 Sundays in there).

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 How about a tofu scramble, or frittata, you can eat them like eggs but they have no egg in it. You can even eat them on a roll. Also pancakes, waffles, sausage and biscuits, a wrap or sub sandwich. Veggie soup or Miso soup. Granted not your typical breakfast food, but breakfast doesn't have to be.
